Ooh now this is some good comic writing

Night and day to the slow meandring writing and setting of Secret Wars, this is fun, electric, and yet with so much less going on.

I guess bro

God, that Doom is so cool.

It's picking up!! Reed is being hypocritical and I feel like everyones morals seem wishy washy throughout this, but Professor X is being less of a jerk and theres less misogyny, so we're on the right path!

Big costume reveal aside it's a snoozefest

It's fine, but where's the ACTION!

The pacing is getting really poor, and while Doom steals the show every scene he's in, the inclusion of Wasp, Klaw, Lizard, and any awful romantic banter feels unnecessary and often annoying

Wasp did NOT just say that to MAGNETO. JESUS CHRIST.

I'm having fun with it but Titania and Volcana feel very unexplained, loving some character banter and Doom remains cooler than cool

Things escalate, the setting is an interesting one but in a genre where so much story and suspense can be packed into one issue, this one fails to muster more than a mystery drama atmosphere, which I admit, is part of what I like about it. I just am heavily anticipating more to come.

Unbelievably whatever, not much fun character dynamics outside of some fun villain moments, and the dialogue is either drab or explains too much, which make everything feel jarring and confusing, but not in the intended way. Doctor Doom is by far the best part of the issue, with Ultron and Galactus also getting fun moments, and The Beyonder's power showing itself in a cool way.

What a brilliant, thoughtful, retelling of these classic heroes.
